NFL 2007: Silly Yanks hittin' each other

[Drago]

Well, nobody else was taking the reins, and I figured it's already week 3 of the preseason, let's russle up a little bit of NFL discussion, eh??

I was just peering over last year's NFL topic, and cunningly noted that I was correct in my assumption that the Colts would hit the Superbowl... so what's in Drago's crystal ball this year, hmm? I don't know yet. It's out of commission, just gimme a little while, while we observe other facts and fun!

I know y'all prolly don't wanna hear much more about it, but I may as well open the topic on Michael Vick. His days as a Falcon are done, and his career is in jeopardy, but most important of all, that man needs to really sort out his life. I'm not in the pro-Vick camp, but I'm not one of the ones crying for the full five-year sentence. I'm still yet to formulate an opinion on this one, really. 18 months behind bars sounds reasonable, but then all matters of ethics spring forth; does 18 months really fairly equate to six years of animal cruelty? The man will re-emerge into the bright sunny world, those dogs will not...

So thrilled that Daunte Culpepper's found a squad in the Raiders; the word around Oakland is that McCown is still the favourite to start, but honestly, what has he ever done in his career that's indicative he's much good? Pep may be a has-been, but McCown seems like a never-was to me. JaMarcus is not gonna be ready to start at any point this year. From what I've been told, he's none too bright; the speed of the NFL will take some time to sink in, particularly with his late start.

Lance Briggs ditching his crashed vehicle - classy, no? Briggs just continues to show his character, and not in a good way.

In other news, Chris Claiborne signed with the Jags... HOORAY!! I wish Claiboy could find a team he could stick with, I kinda like him. Of course, I dunno much about his history or character, but the in-game footage always seemed to show he was alright on the field.

And finally, Titans thoughts!! We've been a bit better than expected this preseason, and Vince pulled out a nice game vs. the Bills... how does the season look? Bright, I have to say. I was all jittery when the offseason cuts happened, but now we're starting to look pretty solid in places where we hadn't been before (Run D on the Titans? I remember that!!). I hope Eric Moulds pans out - we needed a vet with good hands and Keyshawn ran away scared, Moulds should fill an invaluable role as a safe option for Vince on the move.

So discuss what you must! Predict what you shall! And herald in a grand new year of the NF'inL!
